The Stock Options can be exercised up until 31 December 2026 and each Stock Option entitles to subscribe to one (1) new share in Zwipe at a price of 70 percent of VWAP during the ten trading days that immediately precede every third month-end, starting in April 2025, however no lower than the quota value of the Company's share and not higher than 150 percent of the subscription price in the Rights Issue.

Financial Intermediaries:

If an Eligible Shareholder holds shares in the Company registered through a financial intermediary as of expiry of the Record Date, the financial intermediary will customarily give the Eligible Shareholder details of the aggregate number of the Subscription Rights to which they will be entitled.

OSLO, NORWAY – 3 DECEMBER 2024 – Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS (the “Company”) on 7 November 2024, in which the Company announced that its board of directors had resolved to propose that the Company carries out a new issue of units, each consisting of one share and one warrant, with preferential rights for existing shareholders with gross proceeds of up to NOK 39.7 million (the "Rights Issue").

The Board of Directors has received subscription and guarantee commitments from certain existing shareholders and external investors. Thus, the Rights Issue is covered by subscription and guarantee commitments up to at least 41.9 percent, equal to NOK 16.6 million. 

Subscription and Guarantee Commitments

The Company has received subscription commitments from Board members Jörgen Lantto and Dennis Jones, amounting to approximately 4.5 percent of the Rights Issue.

To the extent the Rights Issue is not fully subscribed, a consortium of guarantors, including board member David Chew, has agreed to subscribe and pay for units in the Rights Issue up to an aggregate subscription rate corresponding of 28 percent of the Rights Issue (the “Bottom Guarantee Commitments”). The consortium providing the Bottom Guarantee Commitments will receive a 15 percent underwriting fee.

In addition, the Company and Fenja Capital (the “Top Guarantor”) has agreed that the Top Guarantor shall subscribe and pay for units in the Rights Issue up to 13.9 percent of the Rights Issue (the “Top Guarantee Commitment”). The Top Guarantor will receive an 8 percent underwriting fee.

Further information about the subscription commitments, the Bottom Guarantee Commitments and the Top Guarantee Commitment will be provided in the prospectus, to be approved by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority on or about 5 December 2024.

Convertible Loan and Use of Proceeds

The Top Guarantee Commitment will be fulfilled through the partial set-off of NOK 5,514,472 of the Company’s outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 (the “2023 Convertible Loan”). If the Top Guarantor is allotted units amounting to less than NOK 5,514,472, the balance between the allotted amount and NOK 5,514,472 shall be paid back in cash by the Company to the Top Guarantor, using proceeds from the Rights Issue. The accrued interest under the 2023 Convertible Loan, coupled with NOK 1,000,000 from the 2023 Convertible Loan, will be set-off against the Top Guarantor’s commitment under the Bottom Guarantee Commitments.

To accommodate the Top Guarantee Commitment, the use of proceeds outlined in the Company’s announcement on 7 November 2024 has been revised. 

The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, amounting to NOK 4.0 million, will be extended for another 12 months in the form of a new convertible loan (the “New Convertible Loan”). This arrangement ensures the full settlement of the 2023 Convertible Loan. The New Convertible Loan will carry an annual interest rate of STIBOR + 10 percent.

The issuance of the New Convertible Loan is contingent on the approval of a board authorization at the extraordinary general meeting (“EGM”) scheduled for 3 December 2024, or alternatively, the approval at a subsequent EGM that either authorizes the Company’s board of directors to issue the New Convertible Loan or directly resolves to issue the New Convertible Loan. As consideration for the Top Guarantor agreeing to subscribe for the New Convertible Loan, the Top Guarantor shall receive a fee of NOK 200,000 from the Company (the “Arrangement Fee”). The Arrangement Fee shall be added to the total nominal amount of the New Convertible Loan and not be paid in cash, which means that the total nominal amount of the New Convertible Loan shall amount to a total of NOK 4,200,000.

The Company has also issued 60,000,000 contractual stock options to the Top Guarantor (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options can be exercised up until 31 December 2026 and each Stock Option entitles to subscribe to one (1) new share in Zwipe at a price of 70 percent of VWAP during the ten trading days that immediately precede every third month-end, starting in April 2025, however no lower than the quota value of the Company’s share and not higher than 150 percent of the subscription price in the Rights Issue. The Stock Options can be exercised on 30 April 2025 at the earliest.

The issuance of shares upon exercise of the Share Options is contingent upon either a resolution by the Companys general meeting to issue the corresponding shares in accordance with the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act, or the Company's board of directors issuing the shares pursuant to an authorization granted under the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act.

Changes to item 5 of the EGM notice

The Bottom Guarantee Commitments and Top Guarantee Commitment necessitate changes to resolution 5 proposed for the EGM on 3 December 2024. As these changes do not affect shareholders’ preferential rights under Section 10-4 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act, the Company’s board of directors has determined that these amendments are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. An updated proposal for item 5 in the notice for the EGM will be distributed prior to the meeting.

Robert Puskaric, CEO of Zwipe comments:

"We are very grateful for the continued support from existing shareholders and new investors. By securing part of the rights issue, the management team can focus on developing Zwipe further and continuing our sales efforts.”

OSLO, NORWAY – 20 January 2025 – Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS (the "Company") on 23 December 2024 regarding the final allocation of a rights issue of units, consisting of shares and warrants of series TO2 (the "Warrants"), with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue").  

The Rights Issue resulted in the issuance of 397,213,376 Warrants, of which 166,364,465 will be delivered to the investors that participated in the Rights Issue, while the remaining 230,848,911 Warrants will be delivered to the Company and will not be exercised. The issuance of Warrants exceeding the amount delivered to shareholders is due to compliance with Section 11-12 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act, which requires the general meeting minutes to specify an exact number of Warrants to be issued. At the time of the extraordinary general meeting, it was not possible to predict the subscription rate of the Rights Issue. As a result, the Company's extraordinary general meeting resolved to issue the maximum number of Warrants that could be issued in the event of full subscription in the Rights Issue, and that any surplus Warrants are to be subscribed for and returned to the Company.

All 397,213,376 Warrants will be listed and tradable on Euronext Growth Oslo for a period commencing today, 20 January 2025 and ending at 16:30 (CET) on 10 March 2025. In addition, the Warrants will be listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market Sweden for a period commencing today, 20 January 2025 and ending at 16:30 (CET) on or about 10 March 2025.

One (1) Warrant entitle to the subscription of one (1) new share in the Company. The subscription price upon exercise of the Warrants shall be NOK 0.10 per share.

Holders of Warrants may either sell their Warrants or use them to subscribe for shares in the Company, in both cases within the deadlines stated above. As such, the Warrants may have a financial value for the holders, depending on the prevailing market price for the shares in the Company. If the Warrants are not sold or exercised within the respective deadlines, the Warrants will lapse with no compensation to the holders.

For more information pertaining to the Warrants, please see the prospectus prepared in connection with the Rights Issue (the "Prospectus"), which is available on the Company's website www.zwipe.com and on the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's website, www.fi.se.

Further information about the subscription commitments, the Bottom Guarantee Commitments and the Top Guarantee Commitment is set out in the Prospectus.

In addition, the accrued interest under the 2023 Convertible Loan, coupled with NOK 1,000,000 from the 2023 Convertible Loan, has been set-off against the Top Guarantor's commitment under the Bottom Guarantee Commitments.

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS ("Zwipe" or the "Company") on 23 December 2024, regarding the final allocation of the rights issue of units, consisting of shares and warrants (the "Units"), with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue"). In said announcement, it was stated that the Company received subscriptions for a total of 85,757,930 Units, corresponding to approx. 21.6% of the Units offered, during the subscription period for the Rights Issue.

Approximately NOK 8.6 million of the Rights Issue was guaranteed through subscription commitments and so-called bottom guarantee commitments (the "Bottom Guarantee Commitments"). Furthermore, the Company had received a so-called top guarantee commitment of an amount corresponding to approximately NOK 5,514,472 million (the "Top Guarantee Commitment").

The Top Guarantee Commitment will be fulfilled through the partial set-off of NOK 5,514,472 of the Company's outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 (the "2023 Convertible Loan"). In addition, the accrued interest under the 2023 Convertible Loan, coupled with NOK 1,000,000 from the 2023 Convertible Loan, has been set-off against Fenja Capital II A/S (the "Top Guarantor") commitment under the Bottom Guarantee Commitments.

The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, in addition to an arrangement fee of NOK 200,000, in total NOK 4,200,000, will be extended in the form of a new convertible loan (the "New Convertible Loan"). Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company has today, 23 December 2024, resolved, based on the authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting on 3 December 2024, on the issuance of the New Convertible Loan to the Top Guarantor. Further, the Top Guarantor has subscribed for and been allotted the New Convertible Loan.

The New Convertible Loan is due on 30 November 2025 (the "Maturity Date"). The New Convertible Loan shall accrue at an annual interest rate of STIBOR 3M, where STIBOR is set at minimum 3.00% over the duration, (the "Interest Rate Benchmark") plus an interest margin of 10.00%, (the "Interest Margin") from the day the Top Guarantor pays for the New Convertible Loan until the New Convertible Loan is repaid to the Top Guarantor's account or converted (the "Interest").

The Interest shall become due at the end of each calendar quarter and shall be paid out by the Company quarterly on the last day of the quarter or if this date is not a banking day, on the banking day immediately after such date.

The Top Guarantor shall have the right, but no obligation, to convert the Convertible Loan into shares in the Company on the terms set out below. Each request for Conversion by the Top Guarantor must always be for an aggregate nominal amount of at least NOK 1,000,000.

The subscription price per share upon conversion of the New Convertible Loan shall be NOK 0.12 per share. However, this subscription price may be subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, such as if the Company undertakes a bonus issue; reverse share split, share split; new share issue under Chapter 10 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act (the "Companies Act"); future rights issue pursuant to Chapter 10 of the Companies Act; an offer to shareholders to purchase securities or other rights, or resolves to distribute securities or rights without consideration; liquidation, merger, de-merger, or bankruptcy; or if any of these actions result in an inequitable financial outcome for the Top Guarantor.

Upon full conversion of the New Convertible Loan, the share capital will increase by approximately NOK 3,500,000 through the issuance of 35,000,000 new shares, implying a maximum dilution of approximately 11.6 percent for existing shareholders (calculated on the total number of shares in the Company after the Rights Issue).

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS (the "Company") on 6 December 2024, regarding the commencement of the subscription period in a new issue of units (the "Units"), consisting of shares and warrants, with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue").

The Company received subscriptions for a total of 85,757,930 Units, corresponding to approx. 21.6% of the offered Units, during the subscription period for the Rights Issue.

The allocation of the Units in the Rights Issue has now been completed on the basis of the allocation criteria resolved by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company in connection with the approval of the Rights Issue, and as set out in the prospectus prepared for the Rights Issue dated 4 December 2024 (the "Prospectus").

The board of directors of the Company has allocated a total of 111,219,745 Units in the Rights Issue, of which 85,757,930 Units were allocated based on subscriptions received in the subscription period and the remaining 25,461,815 Units were allocated to the so-called bottom guarantors for the Rights Issue.

Furthermore, the Company had received a so-called top guarantee commitment, whereby Fenja Capital II A/S (the "Top Guarantor") would partially set-off NOK 5,514,472 of the Company's outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 to the Top Guarantor (the "2023 Convertible Loan"). If the Top Guarantor was allotted Units amounting to less than NOK 5,514,472 in the Rights Issue, the balance between the allotted amount and NOK 5,514,472 would be paid back in cash by the Company, using proceeds from the Rights Issue. The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, amounting to NOK 4.0 million, and NOK 200,000 as an arrangement fee, will be extended for another 12 months in the form of a new convertible loan amounting to NOK 4.2 million (the "New Convertible Loan"). The Top Guarantor was allotted Units amounting to NOK 5,514,472.

Through the Rights Issue, the Company's share capital will increase by NOK 16,636,446.50,     through the issuance of 166,364,465 new shares.
